About Rath City (Buffalo Hunters' Camp)
This short-lived supply town on the Double Mountain Fork of the Brazos River served buffalo hide hunters at the height of the commercial slaughter of the Southern Plains bison herds in the late 1870s, and its rapid rise and fall mirrored the collapse of the buffalo economy within just a few years.
